- Dorian has the Best Snark-tastic Recap of 2006 in comics fandom, get a years worth of comics blogosphere dysfunction in one post.
- Speaking of dysfunctional comic fanboys what’s up with these ads Johanna found. Hoo-boy, that’s why I only visit major comics sites when a comics blogger says there’s something worth reading, there.
- From the Missed Opportunities Dept: Jenna Fischer says she approached the producers of Dancing with the Stars and was turned down. Fisher would have brought some new viewers to Dancing, I expect. She is, after all, the greatest celebrity on MySpace ever.
- Oh. No. According to a profile on radio host Stephanie Miller CNN contacted her about a possible show. (via) I’ve enjoyed Miller’s radio show in the past and even remember her short-lived talk show, but she’s primarily a comedian even when she comments on the news. I’d love for Miller to return to television, but I don’t want to see that on any “news” channel. The line is blurred enough already with all the pundits playing news anchor.
- SFist samples Balut a delicacy in the Philippines and Vietnam that, coincidentally, came up in a lunchtime discussion with a friend recently. (She said the red wine mustard on The Spouse’s plate looked unfortunately like Balut. It turned out she was thinking of blood soup.)
